I would be interested.  I would prefer a Saturday arvo if possible.  I would only have a couple of hours as I'm not sure how impressed my husband will be with my arranging to spend a day with men I met on the internet.  :eek: Now that I think about it..........   :faint:

Not sure where in the Latrobe Valley ithurtydeesel is, but I'm roughly 50 minutes away from Morwell.....

Steve, I figure I could meet up with you at, lets say Yarragon....and if ithurtydeesel can make it, we could meet him at Moe.... :-\

Your guestimate is probably about right, Steve, I reckon roughly an hour....but that's nothing when you live in the country... :goodjob:

I get down your way fairly often, in fact I'm heading into the City tomorrow.... :cool:
